Cut the cost of motoring tip #7 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t put premium fuel in standard cars<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Book Theory Test Today<\/strong><\/a> says: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Gone are the days when you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d go to fuel your vehicle with leaded or unleaded petrol. Two choices, it was that simple. But, some did make the occasional error putting the wrong fuel type in their motor. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

However, turn up at a fuelling station nowadays and there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s as much choice in petrol as there are flavours of Coca Cola, some more pricey than others.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The majority of petrol stations in the UK do now sell \u00e2\u20ac\u02dchigh performance\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 fuels. However, the fact is there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s minimal or even no performance difference for the standard road vehicle.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, this is perhaps one of the easiest ways to cut the cost of motoring, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t fill up using super fuels, except if you have a sports car where you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been advised that a premium fuel will actually be used correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Even the AA says that high performance fuels are too costly simply for regular use. However, if you do want to use it, they recommend filling the tank three times in row in order to keep your engine clean and running efficiently, then switch over to standard fuel as the engine could benefit from the \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcfancy fuel\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s detergents.\u00e2\u20ac\u2122<\/span><\/p>\n

The AA also suggests using a high quality engine oil to prolong the life of your vehicle\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s engine and improve fuel consumption. Therefore, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s definitely beneficial to use the type of engine oil recommended for your vehicle to prevent the engine going kaput and adding to the cost of motoring.<\/span><\/p>\n
